N. PEERS. PHOTOvLITHOGRAFHER. WASHINGTON. D4 C A is held rmly to the kneader-plate by the contraction j of the spring O. That port-ion of the substances operated on which coheres to thelinside of the pan is removed by .he pan-scrapenM, and thrown again to the center 0f the pan. After the revolutions have continued a short time, the process of mixing or kneading is finished. I then remove the plate-scraper L and the peg I, and, raising the cross-bar H, lift thc kneading-plate 'K from the pan. Turning ,the pan on its center to the light, in, I remove it from the disk D, and, if the substance operated on is bread, put it away to rise. Turning round the fastener Q, it is retained there by the device named, and my machine is then, with convenience, placed away upo'n a shelf or table.

And what I claim herein as of my own invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In bread and other mixing or kneading-machines,

the stationary plate or column (fixed to the cross-bar above,) extending from near the center'of the pan to very near the periphery of the same, in combination with a rotating pan, all substantially' as described.

lever-plate and spring, and rotating round a stationary plate or column, and passing between the same and the periphery of the pan, all substantially as described.

3. The combination of the plate-scraper L wit-h the stationary plate or column-1K, for the purpose above named, all substantially as described.-

4. The above-described clamp or fastening Q, in combination with the bread-machine above described, all substantially as stated.
